I'm able to look for auto-patrolled edits and for all edits; I'm not able to look for edits that are not auto-patrolled.

Special:Log/Patrol works as follows: showing auto-patrolled edits only. On the other side, I tried parameters like "noauto", "no-auto", "notauto", "not-auto" but all these wrong parameters are ignored. Is there any suitable parameter to call no-auto edits only?

ApiSandbox works similarly. shows all edits differed by

<params curid="782016" previd="781892" auto="" />
<params curid="782008" previd="782007" />

As far as I remember I found a test showing auto-patrolled edits only (but don't know how). I didn't find a way to show no-auto edits only.

Of course, I can remove all auto edits manually. Is there a more direct way? Thanks in advance, Jürgen (User:Juetho)

No answer 'til now, so I created a help by myself:

  1. Create a dotNet application using http://dotnetwikibot.sourceforge.net/
  2. Use the Api query command "list=logevents" as linked to the ApiSandbox above.
  3. Store the result as internal Xml inside the application.
  4. Check each item of the result whether <params> contains the auto attribute or doesn't.

I don't mark the problem as solved hoping that someone else shows a more direct way. Jürgen
